Dear Ms. Fortner:

On behalf of the City of St. Louis I extend greetings and support to the United Nations
50th Anniversary Global Peace Walk '95
. It is befitting that this undertaking commenced on the Birthday of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who devoted his entire life praying for non-violence and peace.

Throughout our world, today, there is a plethora of tension and strife. Far too many nations are preoccupied with civil unrest and military warfare. However, senseless loss of life, liberty, and property can be diminished once mankind regains a vision of world peace.

I pray that your spiritual journey touches the hearts and minds of our national leaders.
It takes all nations working together striving for peace, unity and harmony in order for this to be a better world.

I extend my best wishes for a safe and peaceful journey.


Sincerely,

[signed]

Freeman R. Bosley, Jr.
